Description

StarTech MXT10010 10-foot Straight Through Serial Cable

Overview

The StarTech MXT10010 is a 10-foot straight-through serial cable designed to connect serial devices such as modems, POS systems, or industrial equipment. This cable uses standard DB9 connectors, making it suitable for legacy serial communication ports found on many industrial controllers, network switches, and diagnostic tools. Its 10-foot length provides sufficient reach for typical rack-mounted or desk-based deployments where direct connection is required. The MXT10010 ensures reliable data transfer for applications that depend on RS-232 serial communication.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any device requiring a standard 9-pin D-Sub serial connection, including but not limited to: network switches, routers, industrial automation equipment, point-of-sale (POS) systems, and older computer peripherals. It is designed for straight-through communication, meaning pin 1 on one connector connects to pin 1 on the other, pin 2 to pin 2, and so on. This is standard for connecting Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) like computers to Data Communications Equipment (DCE) like modems, or for direct serial connections between two DTE devices when using null modem emulation software.

Installation Notes

The operating temperature range for this cable is 20°C to 45°C (68°F to 131°F), with storage temperatures from -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F). It supports humidity levels from 0% to 95% non-condensing. The cable features standard DB9 male connectors on both ends, requiring no special tools for installation beyond ensuring a secure connection.
